Chapter 7: Daily Life

The days pa.s.sed, and winter break came without any response to our Detective Library note.

As soon as winter break came, the dorm became completely deserted. Everyone had gone back to their families. Winter break is relatively short, so plenty of girls went home the instant break started.

Personally, I didn't feel like going home. My parents both work, so it's not like a heartwarming family reunion would be awaiting me if I did. There wasn't really any reason for me to visit.

Christmas in the dorms again, huh—?

I lay in bed, staring up at the same old ceiling. And as I did, the face of Kyouko Kirigiri popped into my head.

I wonder what she's up to... I should have gotten her contact info. I wonder if she has a cellphone.

A sudden thought struck me. If I went to the Detective Library, wouldn't I be able to find her contact info? The newer the detective, the more likely they were to have that information listed in their file. They'd be able to take on jobs more easily that way, after all.

I rushed to the Detective Library.
